tarshlove - what did you use the pasta sauce for before you had the leftovers?

I used it for nacho's for the kids. I need something that is low salt and doesn't use mince lol

Spread it over chicken breasts, put small dollops of basil pesto on top (or preferably finely chopped fresh basil if you have some), en top with grated cheese ( I use parmesan and mozzarella but grated tasty will do. Bake at 200 for 20 minutes or until cooked. Make sure the cheese doesn't start to brown. A very easy meal and I usually have small pots of leftover pasta sauce in the freezer to use for this. It's also quite tasty to add to soups like minestrone or to casseroles.

You could always make a bolognaise sauce with veges ans add some brown lentils to it. Quite a nice combination.
